Attended the 300m bat shoot at Canberra SSAA shooting range last week.
Bat shooting is shot at 300m at night. You receive 1 sighter target before your scoring targets. Only 1 - no more sighter targets.
You receive 5 scoring targets with 5 shots on each target with a 7 minute time limit per target. You try to shoot as many bats as possible. Results are measured with both numerical scores and group size.
Gary shot one of the first bats of the night with his 6mm BR with a Cheetah barrel.
Shooting is done at night, so there is no wind flags to indicate the wind, and no mirage to read.
Great fun to shoot! Great atmosphere with lots of laughter.
